Subject: RE: BS: Is Lord of Rings offensive to fundament. too
This should surprise no one, but to be the odd man out here, I really never enjoyed Tolkein. I read it because it was the thing everyone was doing and I never had a clue about any of it. My apologies to one and all, but the stuff just seemed completely screwed and I never saw the point. The movie looks equally weird, but cinematic in the extreme so it should do well.

I feel the same about the Bible too so I'm a equal opps dumbshit and adding LotR to the Twain quote pretty well sums it up: "It's not the parts of the Bible and Lord of the Rings that I don't understand that bother me, it's the parts I DO understand."
